I have a question about Getting
Network Neighborhood to recognize newly attached computers:
My dilemma seems very similar to John Watts. I'm attempting to connect five computers
to my home network. Three run '98, two ME. I use one of the ME computers as my shared
internet host. Three of the machines, the ME internet host and two of the '98s, work
fine. The other two, no matter what I do, see only themselves and are not seen by
the other three or each other. Pinging from/to these machines times out. One of
the machines has network diagnostics, and indicates everything to the hub is fine.
Likewise the hub indicators show both problem machines working OK. While I've tried
other variations, currently I have fixed IP address of the 192.168.0.x form. I've
tried removing and reinstalling protocols and devices. I've tried manually setting
things up every way I can think of, but I'm pretty much a network novice... Suggestions?
